Makeup Primers That'll Give You an All Day Look
Makeup primers are one of the most essential steps in your makeup routine. If you don’t use a foundation primer, your makeup is more likely to look cakey, show imperfections, and wear off easily, because a face primer is what sets your makeup and allows it to have that matte finish that we all strive for. Each primer has different effects that can color correct, reduce fine lines, and give a natural, oil free glow. Sephora is going to be your ultimate stop to find the best correcting primers on the market for that all day look you’re going for. You don’t need to be a makeup artist to get beautiful skin, or the perfect look you desire.

Why I Made the Switch to Fresh Cat Food and Why I’ll Never Go Back. Created with: Smalls.
It was 3 AM. I had been dreaming a nice little dream, then I rolled over and promptly woke up. Once again, my cat Molly decided it was time to throw up her dinner on my pillow and I had the unpleasant surprise of waking up with spit-up on my cheek. It was the third time this month.

7 Tricks the Pet Food Industry Uses to Charge You More for Low-Quality Food. Created with: Smalls.
“You are what you eat” doesn’t just apply to people; it applies to all living creatures. High-quality food leads to a longer, healthier life—and that’s what makes pet owners seek out high-quality pet food for their pets. This is especially true with cats, since they are obligate carnivores with very specific dietary needs.

MyPhoto Changed the Way I Do Sentimental Gifts, And I’ll Never Go Back
Call me old, or just call me old-fashioned, but I’ve never been much of a tech guy. It just never was my thing, and I preferred to live life the way my parents lived it. It’s been that way for 45 years, and I never really saw it changing.

Why Are Men Afraid of Feminism?
Why are men afraid of feminism? It's a loaded question. Not all men feel this way. Not all men disrespect, oppress, or control women. Not all men hold women in disdain. Some men, however, cannot even hear the word “feminism” without frothing at the mouth. Why are they like that?

Christmas on the Cheap
Christmas has become severely commercialized and most of us can agree that it can be wallet draining. We want to shower the people we love with beautiful jewelry and new cars, but it can backfire on us. Our economy is more stable than in the past, but still a lot of people live paycheck to paycheck. There are a lot of reasons for this, but with Christmas especially, many people cannot afford such extravagant gifts. Some people even tend to go further into debt around the holidays while others rely on a holiday bonus that any company can revoke if they so please.

The Essentials for a Wedding Emergency Kit
“Oh no…oh my gosh. MOM!!” Think of weddings like Murphy’s Law – if something can go wrong, it will.

Well worry not, my fair brides (and moms), I’ve got you covered.

13 Signs You're Dating a Foot Fetishist
I have a very long history with foot fetishism. Much of that is thanks to my dating history. My first run-in with a foot fetish happened in high school. He was my boyfriend, and at the time, I didn't realize he had a thing for toes until someone pointed out that he spent an inordinate amount of time rubbing my feet.

10 Cookbooks That Will Teach You How to Make Authentic Japanese Food
Let me begin by saying that I'm the geek who loved Japanese food, and that it's mostly due to my love of anime. Ever since I watched Naruto chomp down on his bowl of ramen, I was entranced. I needed to eat like my favorite anime characters. Hell, I wanted to travel to Japan.

Beyond the Mainstream: YouTube
I get pretty tired of the radio. Not the content so much as the format of it. They take a good song and proceed to viciously stomp its every beat and tempo switch into your brain to entice you to keep returning to that specific radio program—which, yeah from a business standpoint, I understand but as a music lover, it just kind of makes me tired. So most days I actually connect to my phone Bluetooth and cruise some channels on YouTube that I stumble upon at home when I've got the proper amount of time to coast the search results for whatever music style I'm digging at the moment. I've come across some real gems on YouTube, and I always suggest these channels to my friends when they admit to wanting to find some new music different from the overplayed "Top 40 hits."

New Photo Trends You Need to Know About
Every artistic outlet, from paintings and sculptures to music and architecture, has its own trends so long as styles and genres go in and out of fashion. Photography is no exception to this, and in fact, new photo trends appear on a nearly yearly basis as new technology enables new realms of photographic art. Technology has had a particularly profound effect on the growth and development of these trends, as photography is dependent upon the advancement and availability of cameras and photo editing software. As such, you'll see that many trends are directly tied to recent improvements in technology.

Let’s begin by asking, why do minority communities lack the financial training and understanding that many other communities seem to possess? Where is the disconnect? Over my lifetime, I have seen many minority people grow up in poverty and remained there.

How Common is Sexual Assault in the Military?
When the Department of Defense decided to track data on sexual assault in the military, they were overwhelmed with requests for the data to be made available to the public. The United States military, since it has started tracking this data, has implemented numerous sexual assault prevention programs. The volume of sexual assault in the military, though, struggles with the same issues that the public faces when it comes to reporting. How can you identify sexual assault survivors who haven't reported the attack? How can you ensure that sexual assault claims aren't false? More than anything else, how can you prevent future attacks and help the survivors? The military is attempting to answer all of these questions.

Motivation to Be Yourself
I am going to start with an introduction of the past me, the me that I've been on a year long journey to repair. I am Alexis Runyon. I've gone by many names: FatboyJefferson on Wattpad, GutterGurl on Soundcloud, and Yoshii Dey on Instagram. I kept trying to hide myself and my identity while also making my talents prominent. That isn't a way to live. I've learned you either embrace it or stay hidden. I have depression, anxiety, stage fright, little confidence in myself, and so many more flaws. I've been through the ringer, but the vow I made myself forced me to become who I am today; and I absolutely love myself.
